The Great British Energy Act 2025 establishes Great British Energy (GBE), a new publicly owned clean energy company. Its purpose is to invest in and own renewable energy infrastructure such as wind, solar, and emerging clean technologies for households and businesses. This is particularly useful for SMEs who will feel a direct impact on energy costs, sustainability obligations and investment ...
The benefits of wireless communication in energy meters are multifaceted, from improving the efficiency and real-time nature of data transmission, to enhancing the flexibility and scalability of the system, to optimizing energy management and improving safety. 1. Improve the efficiency and real-time performance of data transmissionThe traditional wired communication method has many limitations in ...
Keep on reading! 10 must-read articles on Energy Management Top 1. 10 Ways to Reduce Energy Consumption on Construction Sites You may already be aware…the manufacturing industry is the largest consumer of energy in the industrial sector. ...
At a time of complex, competing business priorities, most progressive and responsible organizations agree on two things. Firstly, to ensure our collective future, we all have a responsibility to act in the fight against climate change. Secondly, we have no choice – we must use digital technologies and data to innovate. The real difference for businesses, however, lies in bringing these two ...
Some time ago, I wrote a blog about how sustainability and digitization go hand-in-hand. I mentioned the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help us make smarter decisions that rely on hard facts and enormous amounts of data - providing companies operational benefits and supporting us on our path to sustainability. But there’s a catch: To be future-ready, companies must start ...
Overview Xcel Energy owns and operates a district energy system in downtown Denver offering steam heating and chilled water cooling to a variety of large customers. To improve the operation and management of this system, Xcel Energy has deployed analytics software using near real time data from the entire system including steam heat exchangers, chilled water heat exchangers, and five central ...
The Greenest Public Building in Britain achieves BREEAM Outstanding rating Local Authority. This ambitious local authority aspired to build the most sustainable public building in the UK. With increasing costs of heat, power and rent across multiple premises the council has streamlined its operation to serve the community from one local civic ...
In 2018, ADEME and BRGM decided to focus on increasing the visibility of geothermal energy. First of all, this involves uniting the organisations that are promoting geothermal energy around an “advocacy campaign” for surface geothermal energy and then also of increasing the visibility of geothermal energy on the Internet. The need With the Multi-Year Energy Plan predicting that ...

The management of Lightsource BP and BP have agreed to equalise their shareholdings in Lightsource BP to create a simplified 50:50 joint venture structure. As part of the transaction, BP will purchase newly-issued equity in the business to help accelerate Lightsource BP’s growth, supporting its ambitious drive towards 10GW of developed assets by the end of 2023. In December 2017, BP ...
Department of Energy (DOE), gathered from multiple forecasters. U.S. wind capital spending is set to surge from $12 billion in 2018 to an average $14 billion per year in 2019-2021 as developers race to meet PTC deadlines, research group IHS Markit said in its recent '2019 Wind Power Plant Benchmarking in North America' report. ...
The Norwegian government is seeking to create an export-driven floating wind industry, building on the country's experience in the oil and gas industry, shipping and renewable energy. "For us, this funding is about bringing floating offshore wind one step closer to commercialization," Nils Kristian Nakstad, CEO of Enova, said. ...
Laira Green School, Plymouth, contracted SunGift to carry out a thorough energy-efficiency survey of their premises. The survey highlighted the areas in which the school would benefit most from replacing their old lights with ...
Developed by Germany's DLR Institute of Solar Research (DLR), CSP Services GmbH and TSK Flagsol Engineering GmbH, the WobaS ASI tracks irradiance variability, typically caused by cloud movement, and predicts energy availability over the next 15 minutes. In a further step, the WobaS teams are now integrating the camera technology with irradiation forecasting to ...
Solar power is on the rise in America and the International Energy Agency predicts that solar power will make 16% of the world’s electricity by 2050. That’s quite a lot of energy and it got us thinking, what would it actually take to make 100% of the world’s electricity via solar power? Could America actually power the world with solar panels? And what could each state power if ...

In fact, global battery-making demand is set to double by 2021, with lithium-ion energy storage demand predicted to increase tenfold by 2040. Much of the extra demand will be placed on China, where 55% of global lithium-ion battery production is already based. This figure is expected to reach 65% by 2021, reports Bloomberg New Energy Finance, by when the largest ...
A first-order one-variable grey model (GM(1,1)) is combined with improved seasonal index (ISI) to forecast monthly energy production for small hydropower plants (SHPs) in an ungauged basin, in which the ISI is used to weaken the seasonality of input data for the GM(1,1) model. ...
Electrocoagulation (EC) is employed to investigate the energy consumption (EnC) of synthetic wastewater. In order to find the best process conditions, the influence of various parameters including initial pH, initial dye concentration, applied voltage, initial electrolyte concentration, and treatment time are investigated in this study. EnC is considered the main criterion of process ...
The US Department of Energy predicts that 3.8 million homes will be solar-powered by 2020. Are you thinking about going solar? Here are 5 questions to consider before making the leap. What incentives are available? Solar has become affordable in recent years, with payment options now offered to homeowners based on tax incentives and legislation on a state-by-state basis. To close out 2015, the ...
Wind energy is soaring around the world, thanks to technology advances and energy policies that have reduced its cost. And things are only going to get better — with prices dropping substantially by mid-century, according to a survey of 163 of the world’s leading wind energy experts. The results, published in the journal Nature Energy, suggest that the cost of electricity from wind ...
